I am nominating this article for A-Class review because this article has recently completed a Good Article Review and it has been copy-edited by the GOCE. I believe this article meets the stated criteria and is at the level of other A-Class Military History articles. The article is free of any minor

One more thing: is it worth including the term "Indian Mutiny" in the article somewhere, perhaps in the opening like "took place during the Indian Rebellion of 1857 (also known as the Indian Mutiny)"? At least in Britain, "Indian Mutiny" is the most commonly recognised name for the conflict, and

Agreed, I would like to know just for reasons of my own curiosity. It was a big house apparently that I believe is still standing, so there may have been quite a lot of room. Never mind!

are there any OCLC or ISBNs for the books listed in the References (only one has one currently, but you should be able to find OCLC numbers for the older works at www.worldcat.org)?

Unfortunately none of the sources I found (including the first-hand accounts) give even a rough indication of the amount of people.

Apart from the immediate aftermath there doesn't appear to have been any wider impact, during the mutiny, of these events. In
153: 682:"and there are plans to make it a tourist attraction", probably best to provide an indicative date of when this was reported 982:"Indian Rebellion of 1857" sounds like a title only Knowledge (XXG) would use (along the lines of "association football"). 1082:

761:. Excellent work. The Indian Mutiny is an interesting piece of history that we don't see here very often. 54: 807:"On 8 June, a letter was received from" suggest re-writing this sentence in the active voice for clarity. 1064: 991: 938: 719: 476: 459: 399: 1042: 1016: 960: 913: 880: 863: 828: 789: 744: 703: 669: 635: 601: 567: 533: 494: 439: 375: 351: 325: 298: 267: 249: 215: 179: 93: 62: 872:
Fair enough; it's an interesting detail, but if it's not in the sources there's nothing we can do.
112: 342:
There are not. As a quick comment though, you should look at your citation style for newspapers -
841:"The European population in Arrah spent that night" Do we know roughly how many people this was? 228:

Is it worth adding something to the article about the relative obscurity these days?
434:
All I could find were initials, despite extensive searches. I have added these.

File:Seal_of_Bihar.svg: what is the copyright status of the original design?
413:" Mr. Littledale, a Judge working..." is this person's first name known? 489:
Thanks for your help with those! I've amended the article accordingly.

I've added a section entitled "Legacy" - hopefully it makes sense.
